Search Engines that can connect disabled people.

Despite significant progress towards ending disability discrimination, barriers such as stigmatization and internet access prevent disabled people from accessing life-improving resources. One of WeVersity’s goals is to break these confines and bridge the gap between employers and the disabled. Jobsites are free tools that compile work opportunities and even tailor their search engines to match your needs! Read below to find which jobsites work best for you.

  • Indeed hosts a massive catalog of jobs for fully abled and disabled people. Their site lists jobs from 100+ countries and offers countless tools to find your perfect match. 
  • Glassdoor is to Indeed, but also presents salary information and reviews from current or ex-employees. 
  • Although Google is a search engine, if you want an extensive list of jobs from varying platforms, you can search for your desired occupation then add the word “job”.
